One question we’ve been asked a lot lately is how many nuclear warheads exist right now.
Keep scrolling to find out ⬇️

The numbers are absurd. There is no way we could respond to the devastating consequences of a nuclear war that’s why we need the #nuclearban!
All nuclear-armed states should stop putting our lives and planet at risk, join the #nuclearban treaty and eliminate their arsenals! That is the only way to ensure nuclear weapons will never be used again.

🧵1/ Recent remarks by South Carolina Sen. @LindseyGrahamSC suggesting the use of nuclear weapons on Gaza would be “OK” and likening the situation in Gaza to Hiroshima and Nagasaki, are utterly unacceptable.
dailymail.co.uk/news/article-1…
2/ Any use of nuclear weapons wouldn't "end" a war; it would solely lead to mass murder, immense sufferings for hundreds of thousands of people that would last for decades and beyond generations and cause devastating harm to the environment.

3/ As stated by Japan's Foreign Minister Yoko "the use of nuclear weapons doesn't fit the spirit of humanitarianism that is the ideological foundation for international law because of the tremendous destructive capability and lethal force of such weapons"

Recent remarks by a French diplomat that Australia’s support for the Treaty on the Prohibition of Nuclear Weapons undermines the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty and the @NATO  partnership are inappropriate. Let's unpack the facts🧵#nuclearban

📚➡️ icanw.org/france_pressur…
🔄 The Treaty on the Prohibition of Nuclear Weapons (#TPNW) builds on and complements the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty (#NPT) so France's concerns appear misplaced. Learn more here:

#nuclearbanicanw.org/tpnw_npt_compl…
As for @NATO,there is no legal barrier preventing any NATO state  that would like to join the #TPNW in so doing. Let alone a partner. Meanwhile, we’re seeing widespread support for the TPNW grow in these states, including Australia: icanw.org/report_nato_tp…

NATO’s yearly exercise in the use of nuclear weapons, #SteadfastNoon, is going ahead this year, despite heightened tensions and explicit nuclear threats. Here's what you need to know 🧵
#NATO confirmed this morning that the exercise will take place in Belgium, with 14 states participating. Belgian media are reporting that it will take place at Belgium's Kleine Brogel base, where US nuclear weapons are stationed: vrt.be/vrtnws/en/2022… Image
All nuclear exercises imply willingness to mass murder civilians, wipe out entire cities and risk all out nuclear war. They also risk accidents, escalation and will legitimize Russia’s dangerous nuclear rhetoric.

🧵1/ #NPT state parties are in the final hours to adopt or not adopt an outcome document for the #10RevCon. Here is what you should know. Image
2/ There are a number of issues that could cause states to break consensus in the final stages of the #NPTRevCon, including disagreements over AUKUS, the Zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant in Ukraine, the Middle East, and more.
3/ What we know is that, whether they succeed or not, they’re failing -- we have seen the drafts on the table and it’s clear that, no matter what, they are not going to advance their disarmament obligations with the urgency the current security environment requires. #NPTRevCon
